Questions and Answers

What is the overarching goal of rehabilitation for people with spinal cord injury?

  • To limit the patient's mobility as much as possible
  • To rely solely on the neuromuscular system for mobility
  • To prevent the use of new movement strategies
  • To achieve maximum independence and functional mobility (correct)

    • What does 'compensation' refer to in the context of rehabilitation?

  • Using movement patterns similar to pre-injury patterns
  • Using alternative movement strategies or technology to compensate for neuromuscular deficits (correct)
  • Achieving maximum independence in daily tasks
  • Restoring the neuromuscular system to its pre-injury state

    • What is the difference between 'compensation' and 'recovery of function'?

  • Compensation aims for maximum independence, while recovery of function limits mobility
  • Compensation restores pre-injury movement patterns, while recovery of function relies on new movement strategies
  • Compensation relies solely on the neuromuscular system, while recovery of function uses technology
  • Compensation relies on new movement strategies, while recovery of function restores pre-injury movement patterns (correct)
